Watch the Sochi Olympics Opening Ceremony Live

You aren’t going to see the Opening Ceremonies in real-time in the US. They kickoff at 9 a.m. here in Denver. You if you want to enjoy them, here are three ways. Or you could just wait ’til the local primetime broadcast on KUSA.

(It’s still a little strange that the opening ceremonies at the Olympics always seem to happen after competition begins— Slopestyle snowboarding and the new Team Figure Skating are underway tonight- Thursday)

1. Download Tunnelbear, set it to the UK, and tune into BBC Two here. (Be sure to pay your TV licence.)

2. A better and more reliable option might be to use VyprVPN. That’s what we use on a daily basis, and you can access BBC Two in the UK, CBC in Canada, or numerous other countries’ versions of the opening ceremony broadcast. Since there’s a three-day free trial, you can sign up and then cancel once the opening ceremony is over (though you might find having a fast, reliable VPN all over the world to be worth the $10 a month).

3. We don’t endorse outright stealing television, but this is a pretty reliable pirate feed of BBC Two. (will be spammy, with lots of windows opening on their own. user beware)
